People in Japan would trade a GTR for a Mustang. No joke.

why don't they just swap parts from someone from the other side of the pond instead of going to their local shop to get ripped off?

Half of the pics in the opening post aren't that USDM.

EK hb with 1.6EL front end. They have Domani in Japan. It's just the grille that's USDM.

ITR with USDM front end. To my knowledge, the first year (or two) of the DC2 in Japan also had the USDM front that we had. It's just because everyone in Japan hated the design, that Honda changed the front bumper.

props for the FG2 Civic Si, it's LHD too!

TSX just has the Acura grille. same goes for the Skyline 350GT, they used an Infiniti grille. and the TL? they had that car in Japan didn't they? I guess it's just another grille change there.

Who cares man, you got people HERE trying to be JDM by simply replacing their Acura badges with JDM red Honda badges.

as for the tsx its more than the grille, its headlights, bumper, wheels and hood. it looks like 04/05 north american tsx. whereas in Japan i never saw 04/05 , just 06 and over.
